End of the World: My Items Can Be Upgraded Infinitely.

Chapter 111 Qin Hu returns, confronts and kills the traitor (Long Chapter)
As the fighting on the front line temporarily subsided, Lin Feng returned to the tank that was being upgraded.

After explaining things to Chen Yanyan, he took the level 20 armor-piercing cannon, flashed away from the patrolling guards, and quietly left the temporary camp.

After he leaves, the copies in everyone's hands will become invalid.

During this period, only the flying wing tank controlled by Chen Yanyan was left, retaining the heavy firepower of three machine guns.

So the safety of the camp depends entirely on her.

In order to speed up, Lin Feng directly activated the full body armor form of the Flying Tiger Armor. The pair of membranous wings behind him instantly unfolded, and he flapped his wings to fly.

Fly all the way to the third line of defense ten kilometers north.

That was also the last line of defense in the Battle of Wucheng.

The headquarters of the 13th Division is located here.

Last night's disastrous defeat not only resulted in the loss of the first line of defense, but also the loss of half of Wucheng, which was five kilometers deep, and the loss of tens of thousands of elite defenders.

Even if they were allowed to withdraw earlier and rely on the city buildings to engage in street fighting, they would not be in the current situation where they were wiped out by a large swarm of black-backed insects under the city walls.

Although this mistake was made in cooperation with the "decapitation operation", the federation will not admit it and the top leaders will not take responsibility for it.

In the end, the ones who will have to take the blame will most likely be several front-line commanders within the 13th Division, and Cheng Zhan, who was the obstructionist, will also have to be investigated and interrogated.

If Cheng Zhan chooses to escape once the other party's identity is exposed or before being controlled...

Then it would not be so easy for Lin Feng to find it again and take revenge.

And when Lin Feng flew to the headquarters at high speed...

In the lifeless military camp, a more tense confrontation is quietly taking place.

The reason is that Qin Hu, who signed the transformation plan at the field hospital four days ago, has now returned safely.

The biological transformation experiment went extremely smoothly, especially since Qin Hu's foundation as a second-level awakener greatly enhanced his affinity for Zerg genes, while also suppressing the risk of rejection in the body.

So when he woke up from the operating table, his lost left leg had recovered, but the epidermis was very hard, and a thick, hard shell like an insect scale had grown on it, and it was the black and yellow color of the tiger spiny beetle.

At the same time, the internal structure is no longer a combination of bones and muscles like that of humans, but instead consists of a large number of long and thin strips of muscle that are tied together like hemp ropes.

Same with a hydraulically powered robotic arm.

After a lot of physical tests, a staff member nearby gave a report:
After the initial fusion, Qin Hu's left leg reached the strength of a second-stage early tiger-spine worm's limb, which is a full twelve tons. The ultimate whip-kick force is more than fifteen tons.

It can easily kick off a half-meter thick wooden stake or a solid steel column with a diameter of ten centimeters.

As for himself, he has already integrated 10% of the tiger-spine worm genes. At this moment, his data is almost the same as that of the early second-stage tiger-spine worm, which makes up for the attribute growth defects caused by the broken leg during the second-stage awakening.

At the same time, there is a bright yellow hexagonal implant on his lower back, which is directly inserted into his spine and connected to his nervous and blood systems.

This hexagonal embedded device, called a zygote by the research institute, stores all the genetic fluid of a certain insect species and can be absorbed by the body through an infusion tube.

At present, the maximum degree of fusion that Qin Hu can withstand is only 30%, which alone can increase his strength to the peak of the early second stage.

It is equivalent to a lv23 tiger-spine worm, with its basic physical attributes increased to over 300. Combined with the physical enhancement ability, it is increased by another 50%, directly possessing the strength of a mid-second stage!

With such a powerful physical attribute, Qin Hu's strength directly exceeded 20 tons, and even reached about 30 tons after activating his supernatural powers. He could directly lift a large truck and punch through a main battle tank.

At the same time, the speed has increased to an incredible level.

The running speed exceeds 100 meters per second, which is equivalent to more than 360 kilometers per hour. It only takes ten seconds to run one kilometer, which has surpassed most land vehicles.

At the same time, the toughness and defense of human beings, which are the weakest parts of the body, become comparable to steel with the help of tiger spine worm genes. The hardened blackened skin alone can withstand the shooting of rifle bullets.

Faced with such horrific data, it is difficult for humans to match it by manufacturing individual thermal weapons.

For example, the tiger-backed worm that Qin Hu has to face is not afraid of attacks from small grenades and individual rockets at all.

Powerful genetically modified warriors require new weapons to match them.

However, before that, Qin Hu, who had just completed the initial adaptation training, was transferred back to the front line.

Because of the disastrous defeat in Wucheng and the failure of the "decapitation operation", the low morale and the weak second line of defense all urgently need a powerful hero to bring hope.

As part of the decapitation plan, the transformation experiment was once again highly anticipated when all conventional weapons failed...

Everyone is looking forward to the performance of the genetic warriors!

Before Qin Hu left the research institute, the researcher in charge specifically told him that before he entered the middle stage of the second stage, he must not increase the degree of gene fusion to more than 30%. Otherwise, even if he had strength comparable to the late stage of the second stage, excessive absorption and fusion would cause irreversible changes.

Simply put, once Qin Hu exceeds his own endurance limit, he will become more and more like a bug rather than a human being.

In particular, this change is not as simple as the appearance, but also includes psychological aspects. It will lead to a continuous deterioration of the mental state and even permanent weakening of mental attributes.

Until he fell into insanity and lost his mind.

Just like the hundreds of experimental subjects before, they failed to survive the initial fusion and either turned into alien monsters that were a combination of humans and insects, or their brain consciousness collapsed, turning them into lunatics with no combat value at all.

Sitting in the jeep, Qin Hu, who was wearing a military uniform, frowned slightly as he looked at the research institute going away.

He knew very well that what the experimenter said was right. During the process of testing the data, he couldn't help wanting to destroy it, but he suppressed it with a firm will.

Therefore, unless it is an emergency situation involving life or death, the tiger spiny worm genes must not be over-integrated.

Thinking of this, Qin Hu returned all the way to Wucheng.

Then I learned about the defeat last night.

At the same time, a sentry post was accidentally bombed and fell.

The 201st Company led by Li Ran that he arranged for Lin Feng was completely wiped out and no one survived.

Qin Hu, who was furious, went straight to the liaison personnel of the division headquarters and questioned them why they did not notify Li Ran at the outpost in advance and withdraw from the missile range in time.

However, the explanation given was that the commander of the Awakener Camp, Li Ran's immediate superior, Senior Colonel Cheng Zhan, intercepted the evacuation order that was supposed to be sent, preventing the signalman from sending the message.

After learning of this situation, he later found Cheng Zhan, who was at the combat center discussing the deployment of the second line of defense with senior staff of the 13th Division.

Qin Hu pushed aside the guards on both sides, then kicked down the door of the operations center and asked loudly:

"Old Cheng, get out here!"

Cheng Zhan, who was still listening to the plan at this moment, suddenly changed his expression and his muscles tensed up.

When the smoke and dust cleared, everyone looked at the figure at the door. It was Qin Hu, who had returned safely from the research institute!

At this moment, his aura was aggressive.

The tangible feeling of oppression made the people present terrified.

Then Qin Hu and Cheng Zhan looked at each other.

Sparks seemed to be popping out of their eyes, as the only two second-level awakeners in the Thirteenth Division were about to take action.

Before that, Cheng Zhan caught a glimpse of the unhappy and frowning faces of the senior executives beside him from the corner of his eyes, so he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, pretending to smile calmly and replied:

"Congratulations, Major Qin, for successfully completing the transformation plan."

"This momentum is really no less than before."

"In my eyes..."

"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense and tell me! Why do you want to frame Li Ran and others, as well as Lin Feng in the outpost!" Qin Hu interrupted Cheng Zhan directly and slowly walked towards him.

Li Ran and Lin Feng were people he had high hopes for, especially the latter, who would definitely play an important role in humanity's fight against the alien Zerg invasion in the future...

But he was framed by the villain in front of him!
Thinking of this, Qin Hu's clenched fist was covered with a layer of black shell and was about to fall on Cheng Zhan's face.

Cheng Zhan put away his smile and replied calmly:
"This is what Li Ran and I had discussed before. He wanted to stay at the front line and cooperate with Lin Feng, the Super Bullet Awakener, to kill a second-level tiger spine worm and complete the second-level awakening."

"Besides, the target was about 300 to 400 meters away from the sentry post, so it couldn't reach them at all."

"Who would have thought that after the missile was launched, those damn bugs would actually dig underneath the outpost's bunker in just 20 minutes..."

"This is just an accident at best. Do you want to put the blame on me?"

"Just for the death of a captain? And Lin Feng, an outsider who didn't even belong to the Thirteenth Division?!"

After saying that, Cheng Zhan looked at the senior division leaders around him.

Especially the commander who is nearly sixty years old.

He was Qin Hu's former superior and cultivated him. It was because of this relationship that Qin Hu, who was only a first-stage mid-level awakener, was able to serve as the battalion commander of the Upper Awakener Camp.

However, now, the one who behaved excessively and refused to obey discipline was Qin Hu himself.

Looking at Qin Hu, who looked excited and ferocious,
The teacher looked solemn and said in a deep voice:

"Qin Hu, you've crossed the line!"

"The person responsible for this failure has already been decided. Our main task now is to resist the Zerg invasion, rather than engage in internal fighting. We must put the overall situation first..."

Qin Hu gritted his teeth and suppressed his desire to attack under the stare of his old boss. Then he saw the documents placed on the long table next to him...

It shows the person in charge of this defeat, the personnel list and their portraits...

They were none other than his former subordinates, dozens of lieutenants and two majors.

And all of these front-line commanders who were responsible were killed without exception!
If the charges are proven, it means that not only will their own death, but also the posthumous compensation and condolences they should receive will be stripped of everything...

Behind each portrait is a family. Their parents, wives, and children all rely on this pension to survive with difficulty.

But the division headquarters actually took advantage of the situation!
This made Qin Hu's anger, which had just been suppressed, rise up again in an instant, and it was several times stronger than before.

He picked up the list of people on the table and shouted at everyone with gnashing teeth:
“Who the hell drafted this document!!”

The intense anger made Qin Hu's skin turn black, and yellow-brown stripes appeared on his face, which was very scary.

Realizing that something was wrong, everyone turned their attention to Cheng Zhan standing aside.

The consequences of this defeat were very serious, even Cheng Zhan was affected. In order to clear himself of responsibility, this was the explanation he gave early this morning...

Realizing that the traitor behind the scenes was Cheng Zhan, Qin Hu could no longer bear it. He tore up the list and rushed towards him without saying a word!
The iron fist as big as a sandbag hit Cheng Zhan’s chest!
In a flash, there was a loud bang and the wall of the combat center was instantly pierced.

A figure flew dozens of meters away, and then stopped after it hit another building. However, Cheng Zhan, who fell to the ground, just wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then stood up and looked at the person in front of him, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

It smelled a familiar scent from the tall figure that walked out of the gap in the wall, confirming the parasitic mother's guess.

This group of humans who don't know how to live or die are indeed absorbing the Zerg's original genes. In this way, they will never be able to defeat the Queen who controls everything.

Not only is the genetic level suppressing them, but also the loss of human mental strength, which makes them lose the last chance to fight against the Queen Mother's mental control!
Even though Qin Hu appears to be extremely powerful now, in front of the Queen Mother's thousands of spiritual power, he is just a puppet or a toy with a little more strength.

Thinking of this, Cheng Zhan smiled even more deeply. As long as he brought this news back, the Queen Mother would be able to send the second-level Zerg to the front battlefield with peace of mind.

Because of the genetic warriors conspired by humans, the threat to the Queen Mother is greatly reduced!
But when the parasitic mother body confirmed that the person in front of it was carrying the breath of a second-level tiger bug, Qin Hu, who was walking in front of it, was also in the state of activating the reproductive zygote...

Smell a strange smell!
At this moment, he was like a Zerg in human consciousness, and his body would instinctively feel disgusted with the humans around him...

But when he saw Cheng Zhan not far away.

This feeling of strangeness turned out to be extremely familiar.

Qin Hu had only experienced this feeling in the laboratory when he faced the black-backed worm.

This means...

The person in front of me is a bug?
Thinking of this, a trace of horror flashed across Qin Hu's face, and his sharply shrunken pupils revealed shock.

Then this disbelief turned into raging rage, and poured out on Cheng Zhan like a pair of heavy punches.

After several punches, Cheng Zhan quickly blocked with his arms until it seized the opportunity and used a weakened version of mental control to make the genetic warrior in front of him lose consciousness for a short time...

Then his figure flashed, turned into a stream of light, and quickly ran out of the defense line.

The parasitic mother has realized that it has been exposed.

The most important thing now is to leave this place, so as to prevent humans from finding evidence of Zerg parasite spies. Although we did not get the gathering arrangement of the second line of defense, we know the next plan of humans against the Queen Mother...

It also counts as mission accomplished.

As long as they escape from this place and pass on the information about the characteristics of the human genetic warriors, the Queen Mother will be able to arrange for the second-level Zerg to participate in the war with peace of mind.

In this way, the human defense line will also be broken through with ease!

Moreover, there is no guarantee of victory for the parasitic mother. It is just a mutant second-order Zerg of the spiritual system, equivalent to the simplified offspring of the mother queen...

Even if he controlled Cheng Zhan's body, it was only equivalent to an ordinary human awakener at level 20. His physical attributes could not be compared with those of a genetic warrior like Qin Hu.

The power he burst out at this moment has already climbed to the middle stage of the second level. If the mother body had not seized the opportunity and distracted him for a moment, he would probably have died directly from the random punches.

A few seconds later, Qin Hu came to his senses, saw Cheng Zhan's running back, and immediately chased after him.

He ran and shouted loudly:
"He is a spy sent by the Zerg! Cheng Zhan has the aura of the Zerg!!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted countless eyes.

The teacher who originally wanted to give an order to stop Qin Hu looked at Cheng Zhan who was running away and said:

"Review the previous report on the investigation of Cheng Zhan, as well as the missing staff officer on the second line of defense the day before yesterday. Go to the main fort where Cheng Zhan is stationed to conduct an investigation."

The other senior executives on the side wanted to speak, but he interrupted them with a wave of his hand:
"They are all second-level awakeners. Their destructive power is no less than that of a company of hundreds of awakeners. How are you going to stop the murderous Qin Hu?"

"By sacrificing more people?"

"Now that Qin Hu represents the Institute and the Federation, his personal conflict with Cheng Zhan can be resolved at this point."

After the teacher made the final decision, no one objected.

At this moment, Qin Hu, who was chasing forward, was soon blocked by Cheng Zhan.

I saw several first-level awakeners rushing towards him without fear of life and death, blocking in front of him.

Among them, there are former awakened teammates as well as newcomers who are unfamiliar to me.

But Qin Hu instinctively felt that the familiar smell emanating from them, like Cheng Zhan, was a puppet traitor controlled by the Zerg...

Then he swung his fist, and at a speed of one hundred meters per second, he turned into a shadow, leaving behind a corpse with a big hole in the chest.

Even though they were wearing red armor for protection, they were as vulnerable as tofu and eggs when faced with the twenty tons of power of the mid-second stage.

As for one of them, Qin Hu grabbed its neck with his big hand and squeezed it hard, instantly crushing the throat and cervical vertebrae. Then he pulled out a long worm as thick as an arm from it...

The familiar smell that I feel comes from it.

Qin Hu then crushed it.

Throw it on the headless corpse in front of you.

With the living evidence before their eyes, the other awakened teammates who wanted to come and dissuade them immediately realized that the situation had changed, and they all retreated away from the several corpses on the ground.

When the news of this situation spread, people in the military camp suddenly became panic-stricken.

Due to the obstruction of these traitorous insect people, although Qin Hu was faster than Cheng Zhan, he had been left behind by him for a long distance.

Especially since both sides were second-level awakeners, Cheng Zhan's speed, stimulated by his mental strength, reached seventy to eighty meters per second. After ten seconds or so, he had already run one kilometer away.

Another four kilometers and it would be able to break through the second line of defense and escape back to the Zerg hinterland.

Seeing this, Qin Hu understood its purpose and immediately chased after it at full speed without hesitation.

At this moment, any vehicle has become a burden to them.

The speed reaches over 300 kilometers, and the mobility and flexibility of the feet are far faster than that of a sports car.

The gap was one kilometer, but as Qin Hu tried his best to catch up, he got closer and closer, and soon he saw Cheng Zhan's disappearing back.

It was not until more than thirty seconds later that two figures appeared outside the second line of defense!
Looking at the more than ten-meter-high city wall blocking their way, and the more than ten-meter-wide canal around the city outside, Qin Hu knew that the other party had nowhere to escape for the time being, so he quickened his pace and pressed forward step by step.

However, what was unexpected was that the main fort behind Cheng Zhan seemed to know about it in advance and took the initiative to open the back door and let him enter the defense line.

Qin Hu thought to himself that this was not good!

The other party also has accomplices in the main castle!
Seeing the gap in the iron gate that was about to close, Qin Hu accelerated and ran wildly. When he was ten meters away from the main fort, he pushed hard with his left foot...

With the blessing of tiger spine worm muscles!

The whole person was lifted up more than 20 meters high, and then landed on the top of the fortress of the defense line. Then he saw Cheng Zhan had crossed the pontoon bridge and reached the river bank.

It was less than a kilometer away from the Zerg's current occupied area. If he were to enter the wormhole, not only would most of the human combat intelligence be leaked...

It will also expose the Gene Warrior Project ahead of time.

More importantly, Qin Hu's new and old grudges were piled up in his heart and he had no way to repay them!
At this moment, Qin Hu was burning with rage. His anger had clouded his reason, and he rushed to the river bank alone, completely disregarding the danger of the Zerg and his own safety.

Once he was surrounded by several second-order tiger-spine insects, Qin Hu, who had no weapons or armor, would die on the battlefield even though he was a genetic warrior.

And this situation soon became a reality the moment he caught up with Cheng Zhan.

I saw a wormhole in the distance suddenly collapsed, forming a deep pit more than ten meters wide.

Immediately afterwards, a team of tiger-spine worms emerged from it, consisting of a total of three second-order tiger-spine worms.

They received the message and came to pick up the parasitic mother!
Cheng Zhan then hid behind them and jumped onto the back of a tiger spine insect. He looked back at Qin Hu who had been trapped and laughed loudly:

"Major Qin, since you like chasing me so much, would you mind going back to the nest with me in person?"

"I think Her Majesty the Queen must be very interested in you!"

"Humanity will be defeated, and the human race will perish."

"Your condition won't last long, and over time, it will produce a lot of side effects, until death."

"Join us, Her Majesty the Great Queen Mother, and we will find a way for you to survive."

At this moment, Qin Hu looked at the smug face of the other party and became so angry that blood flowed from his eyes and nose!
He jumped up and pounced, but was knocked down by the tiger worm's legs and fell to the ground.

Just as the first genetic warrior of mankind was about to be captured alive by the Zerg, suddenly, a noisy buzzing sound of flapping wings came from the distance.

When Cheng Zhan and the tiger-backed insects heard the familiar voice, they didn't pay much attention to it. They thought it was a swarm of green-winged insects sent by the Queen Mother to investigate the situation.

However, the next moment, a loud gunshot rang out.

Then there was a flash of fire...

The tiger-backed worm that Cheng Zhan was standing on exploded directly from the inside of its body.

A blazing fireball with a diameter of ten meters instantly engulfed Cheng Zhan who fell from above.

The violent shock wave smashed the weak human body into pieces, and the internal organs in the torso were even smashed to pieces...

When Cheng Zhan fell to the ground, the remaining consciousness of the parasitic mother body, in a trance, saw a black and yellow figure with a gun floating in the air in the distant sky.

The muzzle of the gun was aimed at the remaining two tiger-backed insects.

Fire two more shots to kill them...

A team of tiger-backed worms was wiped out in a matter of moments!
Lin Feng had no expression on his face as he looked at the reminder that appeared in front of him:

"Successfully killed three second-level tiger spine insects!"

"Armor-piercing cannon lv20/29, orange quality"

「升级点：4/2，伤害250，有效射程10千米，剩余子弹5997/6000」

"Exited the Death Eye attribute state"

"The armor-piercing cannon can be upgraded!"

"Note: A special variant of the psychic Zerg has been detected. It has been seriously injured. You can obtain a certain amount of psychic energy after killing it, and achieve a breakthrough in psychic attributes."

6k big chapter. Actually there is one more chapter today, but I have to drive back to my hometown in Hunan on February 2st. It will take more than ten hours to drive on the highway. I will definitely not have time to write on that day. If I don’t want to take leave, I have to save some manuscripts.

When the time comes, I will find some inspiration in the service area, and I can also collect some inspiration when I return to my hometown to understand the environmental characteristics of the hilly area, and prepare for the human-insect war led by Lin Feng later.
